The Gameweek rolls on with the final pair of Premier League encounters – both presenting fascinating scenarios, fully stocked with Fantasy talent.

The day begins as St Mary’s where Ronald Koeman’s Southampton face their first grilling as applicants for the role of a top four side. It begins with the harshest of tests against champions Manchester City, presenting a lip-smacking battle between the league’s most potent striker and its most robust rearguard.

Sergio Aguero will be the latest of the Gameweek captaincy candidates to test his mettle, against a Saints back four that has conceded just once all season on home turf. That’s just one of the key battles on show, as City desperately look to seize the opportunity to close the gap on leaders Chelsea following the Blues’ stalemate with Sunderland.

Later today, our focus switches to north London where Everton pay visit to White Hart Lane in a match that pairs two sides with top six ambitions. A host of mid-price prospects are on show, with Fantasy managers holding out for an appearance from Leighton Baines and further encouraging displays from the likes of Christian Eriksen, Harry Kane, Romelu Lukaku and Kevin Mirallas.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

      Big score!

      1. Djerbil
        11 years, 11 months ago

        yup one of those weeks

    3. Randy_Marsh
      11 years, 11 months ago

      That's a top score.

      I'll be happy with 50 all out

    Those saying Chelsea will win the league easily I tell you absolutely not. City is only 6 points away and yet to hit top gear. I expect them to get at least 18 points from the next 21.

    1. Holmes
      11 years, 11 months ago

      It doesnt really matters if Chelsea win all games 😀

      1. Cilly Bonnolly
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        11 years, 11 months ago

        They're not going to.

    2. Granville

      Chelsea are far better than City, with a much better manager. Chelsea will not get overtaken.

  3. MattysFantasyFooty
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Got away with murder there that Aguero score could have been way higher come on baines!

    1. Iwantmorepointsthanks
      11 years, 11 months ago

      agree with both 🙂

  4. Mojo Rojo
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Chadli to get some minutes?

    1. Owd Big 'Ed
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Depends how the game goes but would expect so. Everton are a better team than Spurs.

    2. Laserface
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      11 years, 11 months ago

      yep .. 20+

    3. BeachBadger
      11 years, 11 months ago

      I would expect so alright

  5. mo 10 years on FFS? Join my…
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Where are people gettIng these Top10k stats from?

  6. Owd Big 'Ed
    11 years, 11 months ago

    53 + Coleman and Howard vs. 41 + Baines and Chadli or 1 point.

    Good luck Bainesy. Need a couple of goals and for Chadli to come on and stop the clean sheet, lol. Largely unlikely.

    Always annoying when dead teams have a freak week against you.

  7. Randy_Marsh
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Who else was debating whether to get Clichy in for Bertie? 🙁

  8. The Iron Tulip
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Hazard or Yaya? I have fabs.

    1. 4vets
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Haz

    2. Reedy
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Haz

    3. Takedog1
      11 years, 11 months ago

      I'm same dilemma and thinking yaya

    4. Gnu
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Will have both, but I guess Haz.

  9. Think Tank
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Coleman and Baines, save my week.

    1. Davido989
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Banter when spurs score 2

      1. Laserface
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        11 years, 11 months ago

        lol

      2. Randy_Marsh
        11 years, 11 months ago

        Word Banter: Ugh

        1. Davido989
          11 years, 11 months ago

          Banter

  10. Lallana_
    11 years, 11 months ago

    New rule for me? Keep armband on Aguero regardless of fixtures.

    1. Davido989
      11 years, 11 months ago

      I've been doing that for a while now

    2. FPLEL
      11 years, 11 months ago

      This.

    3. chrisjdgrady
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Yea as close to a Suarez/ RVP we will get this season

    4. Iwantmorepointsthanks
      11 years, 11 months ago

      yup

  11. Takedog1
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Anybody thinking of bringing yaya in? Played well today

    1. Gnu
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Most likely, was waiting for this game before their good run of games. Goal kind of seals it.

    2. chrisjdgrady
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Price and ACON a worry for me

  12. Gnu
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    11 years, 11 months ago

    AdM captain fail.
    Forward line 26pts before Aguero baps.
    Win some lose some.

    1. Davido989
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Aguero 0 baps love

      1. Takedog1
        11 years, 11 months ago

        Does a player not get bonus cause of a booking?

        1. chrisjdgrady
          11 years, 11 months ago

          Takes some points off

    2. Van Dal
      11 years, 11 months ago

      No aguero baps

    3. Gnu
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Eh, guess that means 26 pts then. 🙂

  13. Van Dal
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Ideal aguero score as a non captainer

    😉

    1. The Chosen One...
      11 years, 11 months ago

      With Austin (c) 😎

      1. Van Dal
        11 years, 11 months ago

        Nice 🙂

    2. Elniñorules
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      11 years, 11 months ago

      How do you figure? Anyone without Kun is not a serious player I'd think.

      1. Van Dal
        11 years, 11 months ago

        Top 10k

  14. Goodfella
    11 years, 11 months ago

    44pts all out, that Di Maria (c) really killed me.

  15. The Chosen One...
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Hopefully people now realize Saints are not top 4 material

    1. AlCapwnUK
      11 years, 11 months ago

      not top 4 probably, but what about 5th?

    2. Holmes
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Team around that part isnt really top 4 material either.

  16. JayBomb
    11 years, 11 months ago

    As a non Aguero owner that could have been a whole lot worse ! Glad I have him in my team now tough !

    1. Iwantmorepointsthanks
      11 years, 11 months ago

      blind ref

  17. Pringle
    11 years, 11 months ago

    City's fixtures are so juicy. Madness going Yaya over Hazard?

    1. Dr. Rog
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Yes, but why not have both

    2. FPLEL
      11 years, 11 months ago

      I would do it if I hadn't rushed in Haz + Roon...

    3. Randy_Marsh
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Think Haz will return more

  18. saata
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Is ADM -> Yaya an option now?

    1. df34
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Still think Yaya is too dear. Don't think he will produces last years form. If ADM injury not long term then I would stick, or get Sanchez, Fab or Haz etc

      1. Dr. Rog
        11 years, 11 months ago

        Great option up until wildcard.
        The price makes him a supreme differential

  19. Syd.
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Scottish football is really played at 100 mph

    1. Takedog1
      11 years, 11 months ago

      This game will have more reds

  20. Crouching Tiger
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Thank you Aguero, won my important H2H with that second assist.

  21. Dr. Rog
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Yaya train is leaving the station... Pony up

  22. Hibbo
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Any bonus for Aguero?

    1. Syd.
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Unlikely

    2. Chris_White
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Doesn't look like it

      1. FPLEL
        11 years, 11 months ago

        Not tied with Hart for 1?

    3. FPLEL
      11 years, 11 months ago

      And now, just hoping for a Baines 2-pointer and a Chadli 1-pointer.

    11 years, 11 months ago

    Every week you guys say "as an Aguero non owner that could have been way worse"
    ....still don't own him and some don't captain him.
    .
    .
    El oh el

  27. davies
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Aguero should've got 18 points from that game.

    2 goals
    2 assists
    3 BAPS

    1. FPLEL
      11 years, 11 months ago

      That one-on-one man, so unlike him.

    2. GaGa Over Gazzaniga!!
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Did Aguero fart on that refree's face earlier!!.....what problem did he have with Kun??

      1. Wirtzle Gummidge
        11 years, 11 months ago

        He captained him last week.

    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Anyone who watched the game - who's more urgent to get rid of- Pelle or Bertie? Did Pelle actually manage to get any shots today?

    1. JogaSemmedo
      11 years, 11 months ago

      I've got him but getting rid. Could have had a goal late on reaching for a Long ball but form is not there.
